Teoscar redeems himself for that awful play in the 2nd!
Now the Dodgers bullpen has to not blow it.

Phillies are a high quality team with both strong starting pitching (even minus Wheeler) and some dangerous hitters in the lineup.
Philadelphia is a very tough stadium to play in during the postseason.
On the other hand, Dodgers still have the better lineup (even sans Will Smith), and Phillies have had the same longstanding postseason issues as the Dodgers in recent years.
Maybe look at the first 5 innings under, as Ohtani and Sanchez are both pitching very well, and I could see a low scoring game in the early goings. But don't fire on this because I haven't examined it much.
winner. too bad my confidence was shaken earlier. small win. ty
So you did first 5 under?
If so, you probably thought "Druff fucked this up again" after the 2nd inning!
Anyway, looks like the Dodgers are basically disregarding $72 million Tanner Scott.
They're stuck with Teoscar in the field because Ohtani is hogging up DH. He's gotten really bad out there. But they can't complain about his bat this postseason.
Predictably they took him out in the 9th and replaced him with little-known Justin Dean, who literally is on the roster to replace Teoscar defensively late in games like this.
Huge win for LA here. If they can win tomorrow, it's hard to picture they can blow the series.
yes, sir; on both accounts.

Yeah once Ohtani got it together, both guys pitched well as expected.
I didn't bet anything today. Looking at NFL for tomorrow, where I presently have a positive record (and honestly should have a better record than I do, given that most of the losses were close).

Dodgers bullpen = JOKE!!!!!
Trienen & Vesia… Robert was serious this afternoon and people believed him. I thought he was runnin his mouth. There was Roki warming earlier ….Dodgers bullpen = JOKE!!!!!
Analytics is above my pay grade I guess
If Roki gives up a hit buckle up for the baseball news cycle next 24 hours
we will take that shit also why does every third vesia pitch look like its 4 feet high what are we doing
also special promotion 2 for 8 french dips at arbys after every dodger win
We could have looked into it but honestly never thought I’d see his face again.
That's as close as it gets... including almost a game-tying error to end it.
Dodgers squeak by
Why the hell did they bunt there and why did they not pinch run for Castellanos?
With a 4-0 late inning lead we will learn to sprinkle that +1500 on the opponent going forward.
Just have to be right once.
Brewers v Dodgers. Payroll David v Goliath. America is ready cheer the triumph of the little guy.
shutup nerd its goliath time
Fortunately the Phillies made that retardio bunt which greatly decreased their chance to bring that runner home.
When you've got a guy on 2nd with no out, 1 run down in the 9th, you keep swinging and stop obsessing about getting him to 3rd for a 1-out sac fly.
Roberts said after the game that he gave Treinen the ball because he "came up big for us last year". LOL! As if "last year" ever matters more than this year in baseball. Keep in mind Treinen is 37 and was coming off a long injury. Suffice to say that he doesn't have it anymore.
I wonder if this was a Friedman analytics call. Probably was.
Notice that there's been no Tanner Scott yet, and for that matter, no Kershaw. Will be a weird ending to Kershaw's career if he never pitches in this postseason, despite being on the roster.
Roki has been a stud his whole life. In some instances he surpassed Ohtani in high school. (High school baseball in Japan is a big big deal). Roki threw faster than Ohtani.
Then Roki comes to LA and it’s a disaster. Soon he’s crying on television.
Tonight Roki was feeling himself postgame. The swagger and cockiness is back. You want that in a closer. The rest of the pen is a box of grenades with the pin pulled.
